IC Insertion Tool 14-16 Pin

The Jonard MOS-1416 is a hand tool designed for inserting integrated circuits with 14 to 16 pins. It suits technicians and hobbyists who work with dual in-line packages on breadboards or through-hole printed circuit boards. The tool aligns pins during insertion to prevent bending or damage. It is not for surface-mount components or pin counts outside the stated range.

Capacity and headroom 14 to 16 pins

The tool accommodates ICs from 14 pins up to 16 pins with a .3 in pitch between pins. It handles standard logic and memory packages within that window comfortably. Larger pin counts or finer pitches fall outside its capability. The ground lug provides a path for static discharge during handling.

Thermals noise and power draw

No thermals, noise or power draw apply because the tool is a passive plastic implement with no electrical or moving parts. The .06 weight keeps operator fatigue low during repetitive use. There are no fans, motors or active cooling to consider. California Proposition 65 warnings note the presence of listed chemicals.

Questions about this item

Will the 0.3 in pitch on this MOS-1416 match the DIP sockets I already use?

Yes, the tool is built for 14 to 16 pin ICs with a 0.3 in pitch, so it fits standard DIP-14 and DIP-16 sockets.

How can I verify the ground lug is making contact after I insert an IC?

After insertion, use a multimeter to check continuity between the IC’s ground pin and the tool’s ground lug; a low-resistance reading confirms contact.

Does the MOS-1416 come with an extraction attachment or do I buy that separately?

The box contains only the plastic insertion tool with its integrated ground lug; a separate extraction tool is not included.
